I don't think the bridge is broken. It's just that the railing is missing on one side. But I'm not sure if that's intentional.

Very cozy café in the wagon at the old train station museum. Seating outside and inside. Parking for cyclists possible. Easy to navigate hiking and cycling path.

Small trails lead you through the forest, past streams, over small bridges and along slopes. It's fun!

Here you can cross the Prüm at a really beautiful spot. And the bridge makes a funny sound when you cross :D

Settlement above the Prüm that was finally abandoned in 1990 (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staudenhof_(Mauel)). Of most of the buildings, only the "outer shell" remains, the others are completely barricaded. Nevertheless, it is a special place that is worth a visit :)
